With Liu Zeqing from Huai'an City leading his troops to surrender, Gao Jie's troops in the four towns in Jiangbei were exposed to the front of the Ponu Army. The salt merchants in Yangzhou City did not like Gao Jie, a warlord who was a bandit, but the real threat of the Ponu Army made them walk together. The Ponu Army Navy advanced west along the Yangtze River, and more than 300 warships and cargo ships ran rampant on the wide river surface, cutting off the road from Yangzhou to Nanjing City. The Ming Dynasty Yangtze River Navy was all small boats, and they did not have the capital to challenge the Ponu Army Navy. The Yangzhou salt merchants wanted to transfer their property to Nanjing City, which had stronger defense capabilities.

Cheng Xiang's slave army was too fast, and the salt merchants had not yet taken action, and the scout cavalry of the Yixing camp had already appeared around Yangzhou City. The time when Yangzhou salt merchants formed a bond with Duke Hua can be traced back to the year of Tianqi. As the most shameless businessman in the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Ping'an was worried about the Yangzhou salt merchants who earned women and traded money. In the end, the two sides fought. The result was that Zhang Ping'an, who had outstanding military strength, won a great victory. Yangzhou salt merchants spent a lot of money to settle the matter. However, the hatred between the two sides did not end there, and Zhang Ping'an also sent people to extort Yangzhou salt merchants from time to time.

Now, the main force of the Pou Nu Army has gone south. The uneasy salt merchants first asked Lin Qian to help and talk to each other. Unexpectedly, Lin Qian didn't take this job at all, and he asked the salt merchants to take care of themselves. Without any way to ask for help, the Yangzhou salt merchants could only make the worst move to let Gao Jie enter the city to help defend Yangzhou. Gao Jie also knew that the Pou Nu Army could let Liu Zeqing and the others go, but he would not let him go. This was mainly a rumor from the capital that Duke Hua once said to see what kind of dog-whip and donkey treasures, a slave from the three surnames, had, and could seduce Li Zicheng's woman, Xing's private

This obviously humiliating rumor made Gao Jie hate him, so he was unwilling to be insulted by Duke Zhang Ping'an of China. The two sides with similar stinky tastes hit it off in this situation. The 50,000 troops of Gao Jie's troops stationed in Guazhou gathered in Yangzhou and set up their main camp in the south of Yangzhou City. The army of the Pou Nu Army conquered Yixing camp landed in Yangzhou Port Town and headed west to Wanshou Town to set up a large camp. Hu Ming, the commander of the Pou Nu Army, led the head of the headquarters to occupy the Shangguan Bridge west to set up a camp. The vanguard of Huang Zhibailang Camp recaptured Gaoyou north of Yangzhou and could go south along the canal to advance to Yangzhou City.

Just as the various departments of the Pou Nu Army outside Yangzhou were busy setting up camps, the General Staff sent an emergency report that the commander of the Pou Nu Army Zhang Ping'an would patrol the Yangzhou battlefield soon. The generals of the Pou Nu Army who received the news did not care much. Zhang inspected the battlefield before the war was a routine that had been formed over the years, and it would be strange if he did not patrol the battlefield. Soon, 5,000 cavalrymen of the Pou Nu Army Guard Battalion appeared outside the Libian Camp, and the commander Hu Ming personally went out to the camp to greet him for ten miles. Hu Ming, who stood by the official road with 600 cavalrymen, looked at thousands of cavalrymen from a distance, and five cavalrymen in a long queue.

He galloped over with the fox and wolf battle flag. After a thousand black horse cavalry, Hu Ming saw Zhang Ping'an, who was riding a flower horse with a beard and a scar on his face. He saw that his face was covered with dust and black cloaks covered with mud. Beside Zhang Dashang was Qian Mingrong, the five guards with big arms and round waists, and behind him was Sun Xigui, the chief guard of the Qiang of the Guard. As soon as he saw the arrival of the main master, Hu Ming went to meet him alone with his horse's belly. When Hu Ming saw Zhang Ping'an's face, he immediately turned to his face full of pain. He began to talk about his life. He had not achieved decent military merits after entering the pass for so long.

Zhang Ping'an seemed extremely impatient about Hu Ming's nagging in his ear. He stared at Hu Ming with his eyes and cursed: "Get out!"

After scolding, Zhang Ping'an ignored Hu Ming, raised his whip and whipped Hu Ming's butt. Hu Ming's war horse hurt and ran out of the queue with a neigh, causing the kind laughter of the nearby guards. Hu Ming, who finally stopped the war horse, was shocked. He suddenly felt that Boss Zhang became a little unfamiliar. Especially Zhang Ping'an's snatching eyes just now, Hu Ming hadn't seen him for more than ten years. Hu Ming always felt an indescribable strangeness in his heart. He slapped his horse into the guard camp again. This time he did not bother Zhang Boss Zhang, but instead dragged Sun Xigui's reins and pulled him out of the queue and asked, "Xigui, why is Boss Zhang angry today?"

After hearing Hu Ming's question, Sun Xigui did not answer, but showed a mysterious smile at Hu Ming. Then, Sun Xigui ignored Hu Ming. He quickly caught up with the central ranks with his horse heads, leaving Hu Ming confused to the cavalry team of the guard camp far away. Zhang Ping'an, the head coach of the Po Slave Army, did not stop at the Blade Camp at all, but hurriedly turned around and headed northeast. The same thing happened in Huang Zhi and Zhengyixing Camp. Zhang Ping'an, the head coach of the Po Slave Army, patrolled the battlefield, as if it took two days to end. The inspection battlefield of the Po Slave Army, left behind the frontline generals.

After a deep impression, the scheming and calculating boss Zhang not only became superficial but also a little unfamiliar. The generals, full of doubts, resolved with the arrival of the main force of the personal guard camp. Zhang Ping'an, the commander of the Slave Army, summoned the front-line generals to discuss military discussions. When a group of generals met Zhang Ping'an again, the familiar feeling returned. The only doubt of these old brothers was what kind of play Zhang Ping'an was playing. The coach Zhang Ping'an didn't want to explain. None of these old brothers dared to go into it. They could only find the answer in the mouth of Chief of Staff Gu Xin. Unexpectedly, Gu Xin also scolded them and said that they were full and had nothing to do.

Chief of Staff Gu Xin finally explained to a group of old brothers with strong gossip that after entering the pass, Zhang Boss Zhang had not been close to women for a long time. When he arrived in Jiangnan, he saw many beauties and couldn't let go of his face and drink wine. The frustrated mood was naturally not much better. Chief of Staff Gu Xin's explanation was consistent with the personality of Zhang Dashuai, so the old brothers were relieved. They were deeply sympathetic to Zhang Boss Zhang's current situation. It would be a man who would have problems with his silence for so long. There were no problems with his foreign camp prostitutes in their military camp. However, Zhang Boss is a repressed man. He obviously needs his heart but he has to worry about his reputation and dare not do anything randomly. The Possess Army is

The troops on the front line of Yangzhou were only Qinwei Battalions, three battle camps of the Yixing Camp, Hu Ming Libing Camp, and part of Huang Zhibai Wolf Camp, plus the Navy Land Battle Camp as a whole was about 150,000 troops. The Navy Land Battle Camp was only shaking flags and shouting in the south and did not participate in the real battle. The main force of the attack was placed on Hu Ming's head of the Libing Camp by General Zhang. For this reason, Hu Ming was very moved. The officers and soldiers of the Libing Camp ran so far and finally caught a decent piece of fat. The army of the Destroyed Slave Army, Liu Chong, who entered Fengyang Prefecture, waited for reinforcements from the rear. As the Zhongdu of the Ming Dynasty, Fengyang City was attacked by the troops of Zhang Xianzhong in the Chongzhen year, and its city defense was dilapidated.

Some time ago, the commander Zhang Li Xiongying Camp Western Route Army arrived in Fengyang. They just passed by and bought some food and left for Luzhou. This time, they reinforced Liu Chong, including four personal barracks and Yang Meimei's artillery team. Liu Chong's headquarters, Yan Cheng's army and the reinforcement army had a total of 120,000 troops, which did not count tens of thousands of auxiliary troops. So many Posses appeared outside Fengyang City, and Li Maoge, the deputy general guarding Fengyang, chose to surrender. After pacifying Fengyang City, Liu Chong's army marched westward and went out to Shouzhou, where Liu Liangzuo's army was the main force. Yang Meimei's artillery team in the central group of Possesses can be said to be the artillery team with the most artillery in the Possessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessessesses

Yang's sister's artillery team set up positions in the east of the city. Given that Liu Liangzuo's troops stationed in Shouzhou had only 40,000 people, the commander Liu Chong transferred Du Yehe's troops and Du Liang's troops to Luzhou to reinforce the Zhang Li West Army. From Liu Chong's heart, he did not want Liu Liangzuo to surrender. When the Ponu Army pacified Liaodong, he captured Liu Liangzuo's younger brother Liu Liangchen. The old brothers of the Ponu Army had the same thoughts as their commander Zhang Ping'an, that is, they especially hated those who defected to Jiannu. Liu Liangchen surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, and Liu Chong naturally thought that Liu Liangzuo was not a good thing. For this reason, Liu Chong did not give Liu Liangzuo time to think and directly issued an order to attack the city.

For some reason, Shouzhou's city defense was extremely slack, and the moat was thirsty and was not repaired before the war. The not-separate antler barrier outside the city wall did not pose a threat to the attack on the slave army. The only thing that made Liu Chong felt a headache was that Liu Liangzuo drove away tens of thousands of young and strong cities to help him defend the city. However, as soon as the battle ended, Liu Chong could not care about these joint injuries. Now Yang's sister used artillery more and more orderly. After an hour of positioning live ammunition, the heavy artillery was hit on the Shouzhou city wall. Yang's sister's artillery team had a good shelling. They first bombarded with heavy cannons, and then used five kilograms of cannons to hit the heavy cannons around the heavy cannon explosion point. The Shouzhou city wall was not very solid.

In fact, how can we resist the continuous artillery attack of the Slave Army? After the three-wheeled artillery bombardment, the city wall in the east of Shouzhou collapsed more than 60 feet. After the artillery bombardment, the artillery team crossbow box trucks approached the city wall in the artillery fire. After the artillery achieved results, the crossbows* began to shell the two sides, thus expanding the battle gap. The army of the siege of the Slave Army was much higher than the defenders. After the artillery team opened the breakthrough, seven thousand soldiers of the Slave Army rushed into the city along the damaged city wall. If it were to say that the Slave Army showed their ability in the battlefield within the pass, Zhang Li, the commander of the Western Route Army, could be called a strange thing. When facing the Zuo Liang Yu tribe who was several times more than he had, he started to trade with the Zuo Liang Yu tribe and Huang Degong tribe in the northeast of Luzhou City.

The commander Zhang Li shamelessly used the name of Duke of China Zhang Ping'an, saying that he wanted to reconcile the conflict between Zuo Liangyu and Huang Degong. Taking the powerful combat power of the Po Nu Army, Zuo Liangyu's troops who came from afar temporarily stopped siege the city. Zuo Liangyu had to figure out the details of the Po Nu Army. Huang Degong's troops in Luzhou City were not sure about the real purpose of the Po Nu Army coming to Luzhou. He was quite safe in the city. Huang Degong hoped that the Po Nu Army and Zuo Liangyu's army outside the city would be tied up. If he wanted to fight with Zuo Liangyu's army, Huang Degong had to throw a piece of fat meat that everyone was jealous of. This piece of fat meat was Huang Degong in Lu.

The 300,000 taels of gold plundered by the state. In the southern Zhili territory, Luzhou is a fertile land, and Huang Degong has almost taken out half of the wealth accumulated by Huang Degong for more than ten years. It is not that Huang Degong's family is rich. As a warlord who dominates the country, Huang Degong can force or even rob the wealthy gentry of Luzhou Prefecture. Zhang Li, the commander behind the scenes, saw through Huang Degong's plan to beat the dog after receiving the gold offered by Huang Degong. So Zhang Li generously accepted the gold sent by Huang Degong and sent someone to send a message to Zuo Liangyu. As long as Zuo Liangyu can take out more gold than Huang Degong sent, the Slave Army can choose to withdraw. (To be continued)
