When densely packed small green buds appeared on a willow tree in the yard, Gong Yunda, the governor of Huainan, who had been hesitating, finally made up his mind.

A day ago, news came from the southeast. The Tang Dynasty court appointed Xiang Lan, the granddaughter of the Lingnan Jiedushi Xiang Xun, as the queen. Xiang Xun was promoted to the prince and the commander of the Southeast marching commander. He was responsible for the four places of Fujian, Lingnan, Guiguan and Rongguan. He formed the Southeast marching commander of the Southeast marching commander Xiang Xun.

After more than ten years of chaotic battles in many towns, the chaotic world finally inevitably entered the merger of big fish eating small fish. The weak towns and places can only choose one party to join, and want to take over one party and defend themselves. Just keep the snow in front of your own door, no matter the frost on others, the era will be completely over.

Now even if you don't mess with people, it's time for them to come and repair you.

Gong Yunda felt that his strength was insufficient. In such an environment, he could not guarantee his independent status. The only thing he could do was to choose one party to join.

But in fact, he has no other choice.

Joining Zhu Youzhen's side was a decision he had to make.

In the past, I was a local emperor and Huainan was his private property, but now, such good days will never be returned. Although I was unhappy, there was nothing I could do about it.

The flood is overwhelming, and no one can escape.

Sun Tonglin, who had been in Huainan for almost a month, left satisfied. Huainan took the initiative to surrender, allowing Zhu Youzhen to free up his troops to attack Eyue. Even Huainan could send troops to help. If Eyue knew the current situation and wanted to resist stubbornly, then the attacks between the two groups would also take Eyue in a very short time.

Zhu Youzhen does not have a navy now, but Huainan has a good navy, which is why Zhu Youzhen is particularly proud of Huainan. It is indispensable to manage the south and a powerful navy.

"Yang Guangli, who was sent to Yangzhou to replace Mei Jiu, has set off." Gong Bin said: "Yang Guangli has brought a thousand elite troops with elite troops. I have made some corresponding arrangements on Yangzhou. The troops that have stayed there have been sent to take over the troops wherever they have been sent to take over. Both sides respond, Mei Jiu will not have the power to resist."

Gong Yunda nodded: "If Mei Jiu honestly handed over the position of Yangzhou magistrate, don't make things difficult for him anymore. I will give him a good position in the Jiezhen Mansion. This person is still capable and has reputation. If he can get his help, it will save a lot of trouble."

"Yes, I hope he knows the current affairs." Gong Bin said: "If he refuses to come to Jiezhen Prefecture to take office, he will not be able to keep him. Yangzhou's important land will not be lost."

Baoying, military camp.

Ge Cai held the horizontal knife around his waist and walked towards the barracks with great strides. At this moment, outside the barracks, an officer held an arrow in his hand and shouted and asked the soldiers to open the barracks.

Ge Cai made a gesture, and the soldiers in front of the camp opened the door.

"Who is making noise in front of the camp gate? Do you want to die?" Ge Cai spread his legs, stood in the middle of the gate, shouting sternly.

"I am here by the command of General Jie to take over the command of Baoying's garrison. Who are you? Where is Feng Cai?" The officer riding on the horse shouted sternly through several horse-rejecting horses.

"Who is Feng Cai?" Ge Cai turned around and asked Liu Yuan.

Liu Yuan smiled and pointed to a head hanging from a tall flagpole in the barracks: "It's the one who took the lead in causing trouble and was cut by you with one knife. It turned out to be the commander of Baoying's garrison."

The officer outside the camp gate also saw the head in the direction Liu Yuan pointed. Just then, a gust of wind blew, and the shaking head turned over. The head that was pickled with lime was well preserved, and the appearance could be seen clearly.

"You, you actually killed Feng Cai. Do you want to rebel? Who are you?"

"My name is Ge Cai, now I should be in charge of my treasure." Ge Cai raised his thumb and pointed his nose: "Which slug is you that popped out of the crack? How dare you shout in front of me?"

"After the order of General Jie, I will take over Baoying's troops." The officers outside raised the token high, but their confidence in speaking was a little lacking.

"I am following the order from the magistrate of Mei Jiumei, Yangzhou. I can't recognize what kind of handsome you said." Ge Cai laughed.

The officer stopped and looked at the military camp, as if he felt something was wrong. He quietly took the horse back a few steps: "I think you don't want to live without violating the military order of the commander of the Jieshou."

Ge Cai sneered: "You don't want to live anymore." With a raised hand, a row of soldiers stood up on the wall, and the crossbow arrows in their hands pointed at the officers outside the door.

The officer outside the gate was shocked. As soon as the order to retreat was shouted, the crossbow arrows at the camp gate were shot out like raindrops. The officer was agile. He rolled down the horse in the backwards and actually used the horse as a shield to escape a rain of arrows. However, his subordinates were not so lucky. They were killed one after another under the shooting of the crossbow arrows.

The officer drew his sword and jumped up, and actually collided with Ge Cai in front of the camp gate. It has to be said that the officer's reaction was still very fast. At this time, if he turned around and fled, he would definitely be another round of crossbow arrows to send him to the west, but he would hit the inside of the camp and narrowed the distance with Ge Cai, so the crossbow archers would not shoot.

This is a woman.

If she could hold her at once or escape her life, by this time, the officer no longer hoped to take over the military camp. There was a major incident in Yangzhou. Now the best thing is to save her life and escape back and tell the young marshal the fact.

Seeing the officer rushing towards Ge Cai, Liu Yuan smiled and took a few steps back.

Ge Cai didn't even pull out his sword, standing there like a mountain. As the officer rushed to approach her, she leaned slightly, and the officer's horizontal knife wiped her body and cut down. With a angrily shout, she raised her hand, and it was the general who raised the sword and held it with his arm, twisting his body.

Hearing the officer's arm zipped, the muscles on Liu Yuan's face jumped. Seeing Ge Cai's hand pinched the back of the other party's neck, he quickly shouted: "Stay alive."

As soon as he spoke, Liu Yuan saw Ge Cai exerting force, lifting the officer high, then exhaled and smashed heavily to the ground.

"Binding!"

The soldiers who were stunned by the sight of the eyes rushed up and pressed the officer to the ground, and tied them up firmly.

The officer's mouth was obviously not tight. Ge Cai just grabbed his broken arm and shook it left and right, shaking it. Amid the sound of a pig-killing shout, he confessed all of it.

"Yang Guangli, one thousand people." Ge Cai smiled, "Sent to the whole army to assemble."

"Don't you report it up first?" Liu Yuan asked.

"Of course the report is to be reported, but since Yang Guangli is about to arrive, we might as well send the good news and the report together." Ge Cai said.

There are now more than 1,500 soldiers in Baoying Military Camp, of which 1,000 are soldiers from the north, and the other 500 have survived Ge Cai's hell-style training for more than a month. As for the others, they have been driven out of the military camp by Ge Cai.

Yang Guangli, the new Yangzhou magistrate, is currently leading an army of 1,000 people, and is stationed by Baima Lake. He is waiting for news from Baoying.

This time he was able to become the governor of Yangzhou, which was naturally a leap in his career, but he also knew that things were not that simple. Otherwise, there would be no need to take office and lead a thousand elite troops.

It is well known that Mei Jiu, the magistrate of Yangzhou, opposed Jishuai's surrender to Daliang. It is already a good thing that Mei Jiu has recruited some troops in Yangzhou, and the meaning of parting ways with Jishuai is already very obvious. He now expects that the troops left in Yangzhou are still loyal to Jishuai, and the arrangements of the young marshal in Yangzhou can also play a role. Otherwise, his journey to Yangzhou would not be smooth.

"The magistrate, it's time to set off. We strive to arrive at Baoying when it's dark. Wherever we can gather a thousand garrisons there and then set out for Yangzhou. The earlier we arrive in Yangzhou, the shorter the reaction time of the other party." Gong Hao, the direct commander of the thousand men, came over and said.

"Let's go!" Yang Guangli nodded. "Is there no news from Baoying yet?"

"Not yet, just wait while walking!" Gong Hao said.

The attendant led the horse over, and Yang Guangli stepped on the pedal with one foot. Before he could turn over the horse, there was a sudden sound of horse hooves in the distance.

"Enemy attack, enemy attack!" The scout who was running wildly shouted loudly, "Baoying's troops have rebelled."

Yang Guangli shivered, and the horse rushed forward, almost dragging him to the ground.

Gong Hao was also shocked and shouted loudly: "The whole army gathers together and prepares for the battle!"

The drum beats rang out quickly, and a thousand soldiers quickly began to assemble. Gong Hao held Yang Guangli, who was a little panicked, and comforted him: "Magistrate, Baoying's garrison is some waste. Don't worry, see how I beat them up and down."

While speaking, the figure of an enemy had already appeared in the distance.

The enemy was getting closer and closer. Yang Guangli looked at the black metal wave and turned to look at Gong Hao with some trembling: "Is this what you mean by cowardly waste?"

There were only 1,500 troops, including only more than a hundred cavalrymen, wandering on both sides of the large army, but Ge Cai had no cavalry. He was carrying a horizontal knife in one hand and a shield in the other, walking in front of the infantry team. On the left and right sides, Liu Yuan and Qin Chaizi followed him step by step, just like the two generals of Hum and Ha.

"Attack!" Ge Cai waved his sword and shouted.

At the same time, Gong Hao also raised his spear and rode on the horse and shouted: "The whole army attacked."
