It is not difficult to see that Wu Zheng is playing a game of chess.

He even put himself in the chessboard and became a piece in the chessboard.

Logically, he, who is already the King of Wu, does not need to experience the dangers personally.

The new regime in the General's Mansion was just like the rising sun, but in contrast, the Qing court was already exhausted. It was like a strong man. It was obviously in the past, but unfortunately there were too many trivial matters and the battle day and night had already been overdrawn. The key was that its internal organs were not good enough. Therefore, after several times of encounters in the south of the Yangtze River, it was no longer able to swallow the elephant, and it showed a drooling state of twilight too early.

But after all, a camel that starves to death is bigger than a horse, and is completely different from killing it.

The great man once said, "If the dust is not swept, it will not run away by itself." In Wu Zheng's eyes, the Qing court is dust, but this dust... is a bit thick.

To sweep it away, you have to pay the blood and lives of countless Jiangnan warriors, which Wu Zheng could not bear.

Too many people died in the late Ming Dynasty. When the Ming Dynasty was at its peak, the registered population had exceeded 110 million, but now, the most densely populated Jiangnan has only more than 30 million, which is included in the two prefectures of Yangzhou and Huai'an.

It can't be so dead anymore, otherwise it will take at least two or three generations of people to revitalize China, and Wu Zheng can't wait for so long.

So he began to plan the game of chess.

The Qing court did not care about whether it wanted to or not, or how it was, the mountain was there.

This is a conspiracy.

....

Azig has been really distressed recently.

The Fengyang Battle, which was originally faithful, suddenly lost control due to some "small things".

First, Jiang Yan, a wolf that was not familiar with food, suddenly turned against him. Not only did the following offenders kill the main general Ai Songgu, but he also brought five or six thousand people from his own troops to Guangxinwei.

In this way, Liu Tiren's troops, who were already alone, were transformed and turned into a disgrace, which was a sign of being the leader.

Although Ajige didn't care too much about Ai Songgu's life or death, he sent out more than 10,000 troops and suddenly turned into clouds and smoke. No one could accept this. What made Ajige even more troubled was that the strength of both sides had increased.

Of course, Azig can handle it.

What he couldn't deal with was that Linhuai, who was so close to him, was attacked by Li Guo like crazy.

This was too dangerous. I thought that if Li Guo's army defeated Liu Tiren's army and Li Guo's attack on Linhuai would have to withdraw his troops because the retreat was cut off, but Liu Tiren was not defeated, but instead became stronger and stronger. This provided Li Guo's strong support for attacking Linhuai. Li Guo was not afraid of death and spared no expense to attack Ajige had an unspeakable palpitation... If there were such Ming troops deployed in Shanhaiguan a few years ago when the army entered the pass, what else would be the Qing Dynasty?

A Wu Zheng appeared in Jiangnan, which was already a headache. Now, another Li Guo is added... Could it be that the luck of the Qing Dynasty ended now?

Ajige was even unwilling to think about what would happen to Linhuai City if Jiang Guan led his troops to join Li Guo's attack on Linhuai?

If only these two problems were just these, Ajige could barely deal with it. After all, he still had 50,000 or 60,000 troops in his hands, and most of his direct flag army had not moved.

But the problem is that Azig never thought that Rocodo and Doni would die in Hengyang, a mere unknown town.

To Ajige's shame, what annoyed was that the two of them died at the hands of a group of farmers and local buns. This was really ridiculous and had lost all the faces of their ancestors.

Even if he has disagreements in politics and different positions, Ajige never denies that Prince Luo Keduo is a rare brave general and a talented man, but he has a boat capsized in the gutter.

However, Azig was glad that Doni went with Rokkodo, otherwise he would have to write a memorial to defend himself to deal with the cold wind blowing his own in the court in the emperor's children, saying that he intended to kill someone with a knife and send Doni under the enemy's knife.

Aziger really couldn't handle three problems.

There are too many monks and less porridge.

How to distribute 50,000 or 60,000 troops in your hands?

It is more than enough to save one road, but it is difficult to save two roads, but if you want to save three roads, it will really cost you a life.

Unless Fengyang City doesn't want to defend it, Ajige is in extreme dilemma for a moment.

The only decision he made immediately was to ask Yanzhou for help.

....

It is said that good is not effective, bad is not effective.

Ajig was really right.

Jiang Yan, who had just turned against the enemy, after confirming that King of Wu and Duke Kui agreed to appoint him as the deputy commander of Guangxin Guard, his "ambitiousness" was greatly enhanced. He did not hesitate to lead the army north with Liu Tiren.

That's right, do you still need to cut off the rear for Li Guo at this time?

After two key passes were captured, most of Fengyang City had to reinforce and invested in Guangxin Guard. Even if Ajige sent a large army to reinforce again, it would be that the distance would not reach the near fire.

There is no need to cut off the back. As long as the two troops are combined into one, it will be a solid existence. The strategy is insufficient, so you can protect yourself and be safe!

....

Li Guo, who was fighting at Linhuai City, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

If you survive a great disaster, you will have good fortune.

Liu Tiren and Jiang Guan led their troops to help, and the two armies combined were nearly 20,000.

Now it is not Li Guo who is worried, but Brother Bayan in Linhuai City.

Among the more than 2,000 defenders on the city wall that were bombarded by Li Guo without discrimination, most of them were Bayan's direct descendants.

Now the only thing he can rely on is the cavalry.

Unfortunately, what are the cavalry used to defend the city?

After asking for help from Fengyang City three times, Brother Bayan finally couldn't help but feel helpless. He was about to survive!

Cavalry is originally an offensive army.

In addition, what Manren is most not good at defending the city, and that is right. Manren lives in tents and lives a nomadic life. Only when he established the Later Jin Dynasty in Nurhaci, he had a capital. Without a city, how could he defend the city?

Bayan was indeed "brave". He strangely ordered that all cavalrymen opened the city gate to launch a counterattack in the short gap of the Guangxin Guard's ceasefire and rest.

He was indeed "brave", and he even ignored it completely. At this time, the Guangxin Guards had already met on the two roads outside the city, and there were five or six thousand more Jiang Yuan.

What proportion is this?

The ratio of nearly one to six to seven.

But Bayan never thinks he is seeking death, but is loyal to the Qing Dynasty, the emperor, and the court!

God knows that this Manchu, who is not a Manchu, will have such firm loyalty.

What is even more shocking is that Jiang Yan, who was regarded as a "must-beware" by Wu Zheng and Li Guo as a "three-family slave" by Li Guo, took the initiative to ask for the battle, led his troops to fight to the forefront, and fought against more than 2,000 cavalrymen in Bayan.

Li Guo and Liu Tiren instead formed a collaborative follower, with Jiang Guan on both sides pressing the formation.

When the crossbows in the sky were heard with dull muskets, it was conceivable that no matter how elite cavalry was, they could not withstand the enemy from all sides.

In this battle, Jiang Guan wiped out the cavalry of Bayan at the cost of more than 1,800 casualties. As a result, he unswervingly confirmed the position of the fourth leader of Guangxin Guard.

However, this also planted irreversible seeds for the subsequent division of Guangxinwei.

Of course, this is a later story.
