Chen Wen's Jiangsu and Zhejiang Ming army is famous, so Shang Kexi asked himself whether he could defeat Yue Le or Jiergalang with the same force. He was even more afraid of Chen Wen who had done this.

It is precisely because of this fear that he has to strengthen his strength as quickly as possible. In order to survive, this book is understandable. Even from the moment Chen Wen could tolerate Shang Kexi using Shang Zhixin's name to ride on the fences on both sides of the Ming and Qing dynasties, he already had this consciousness.

"The Chen thief wanted to kill us, which was a prudent. Before, there were Qing troops in Jiangnan and northern Huguang as a restraint. His own military strength was far from enough to control the larger occupied areas. Now Nanjing is in his hands, Fan Wencheng from northern Huguang is already alone. I planned to take advantage of the opportunity of the old thief withdrawing from Guangdong and Guangxi to expand his strength, but the Chen thief actually did not even invite an imperial edict and launched an attack on Fujian and Guangdong vassal states."

Shang Kexi gritted his teeth, but Jin Guang and others below also knew. Please give me an order? That is impossible. Neither Sun Kewang nor Yongli would sit by and watch Chen Wen continue to grow bigger. At this point, there is no difference between "Cao Cao" and "Emperor Xian".

However, Chen Wen started with Liu Qingtai and used the fact that Geng Jimao sold food and grass to Liu Qingtai as an excuse. Now he entered Guangdong, and while he was hyping up to be a wealthy man for Hao Shangjiu, he also used the banner of suppressing Shang Kexi's revenge for the Ming army in Guangdong. At first glance, Shang Kexi was creating excuses for Chen Wen, but in fact, even if Shang Kexi did nothing, he was a harmless good baby in Guangzhou City, Chen Wen would also solve his troubles, and there was no other possibility.

"The last one will follow the prince's orders and will stick to Guangzhou to wait for the situation to change."

Shang Kexi naturally handed over the important task of defending the city to Xu Erxian. This was his general brought out from Dongjiang Town. He was loyal to him and never said anything. The same was true for another important general under his command. Ban Zhifu, who was still rushing back, was still on the way back. After the army arrived, he and Wu Liuqi and Huang Yingjie were rushing to support the city. As for Shaozhou deputy general Lin Benzhi only had two thousand soldiers and his combat effectiveness, he was relatively low. Instead of going to Guangzhou to become the weakness of the defender, it would be better to continue to guard Shaozhou to harass the grain roads of the Ming army from the south of Jiangxi.

"Prince, the subordinates have prepared their guards and the detailed investigation and work continues. Now Chen thief is still on the road. With the strong city of Guangzhou, he will be able to defend it for half a month. I am afraid..."

Jin Guang wanted to speak but stopped, but everyone present knew exactly what he was going to say.

"Since Chen's thief dared to send troops to attack without asking for an order, the imperial edict will arrive. He can be said to be the old thief who learned from Sun Kewang's orders and refused to obey the orders. So after all, we still have to look at two things. One is the degree of threat to Jiangxi by Sun Kewang's army, and the other is ours."

Shang Kexi finished speaking with the words of Jin Guang. He had already thought of these on the road. Only by fighting can one fight, but the Ming army in Jiangsu and Zhejiang had brilliant achievements in both field battles and siege cities. He could ask himself how to ask time in Guangzhou, but if Chen Wen wanted to withdraw his troops, it still depends on the effect of external forces. This external force also takes time. Sun Kewang will not win the fire for him. He must show that he can hold on to the possibility of external forces to help him. Sun Kewang is like this. Even Zheng Chenggong, who just divided Geng Jimao with Chen Wen, plans to give it a try.

"Mr. Jin, it is not enough to prepare to guard the equipment and investigate spies. Guangzhou must strengthen its walls and clear the fields. Anyone who refuses to retreat to western Guangdong will be killed. All the houses are burned and all the food will be snatched. You must never leave even one person, a piece of tiles, or a grain of rice for Chen! "

It is inevitable to strengthen the walls and clear the wilderness, and Jin Guang is not doing it, but compared to Shang Kexi, he still lacks the cruelty to defeat all the people, burn them all, and grab them all. In fact, it is no wonder, otherwise how could he be the King of Sanshun?

"Xiaoguan understand, please arrange it now."

He quickly expressed his attitude, and Jin Guang then advised Shang Kexi: "Prince, it's better to let Wu Liuqi and Huang Yingjie do it. Chen Thief is a person who doesn't rub the sand in his eyes. Their hands are dirty enough so they don't have to worry about them betraying the prince."

"Mr. Jin said very much."

Shang Kexi was deeply concerned about this. Wu Liuqi and Huang Yingjie were not his confidants after all, but were the generals who fell to him in the years when the king's flag was changing on the head of the city of Guangdong. This is not only Wu and Huang, such as Lin Benzhi and Xu Long, all of them. As for the original Super Biao in Guangzhou, Fu Biao had been digested by him and absorbed it as his troops. He also showed loyalty in his recent offensive to the west, so there was no need to worry too much.

"Let's work harder. Chen Zhe is too big and there are always times when he is stretched. As long as Chen Zhe can't hold on, he will be extremely sorry for his annexation of Chaozhou. It will be enough for us to gain time to integrate Guangdong and Guangxi."

……………………

Shang Kexi relied on the strong city of Guangzhou, and more importantly, the fear of Chen Wen by other vassal states. However, in this half month, it was not a lot - Chen Wen's army was still in Chaozhou at this moment, and even the two divisions that set out from Nangan were now in northern Huizhou. Chen Wen only took half of the time on the journey, and only a few days left. Du Yonghe had been guarding under his and Geng Jimao's troops for nine months. Is he not as good as Li Chengdong's general?

General Wu Liuqi, General Raoping, arrived in Huizhou with his troops and joined Huang Yingjie, and then gave up Huizhou and moved towards Guangzhou. Before the army could enter the boundary of Guangzhou, Shang Kexi's order to clear the fields was arrived. The order was very simple, asking them to burn all the houses along the way and drive all the people along the way to Guangzhou. Those who refuse to leave were killed. As for money and food, even people were killed. Will they still stay?

After receiving such an order, Huang Yingjie happily responded. Previously, Shang Kexi's army advanced westward, destroying all the way, and robbing money and grain in an incalculable population, which made him envious. Now Shang Kexi has expressed his attitude of defending Guangzhou and waiting for the emperor's edict and Sun Kewang's army. It is naturally a good thing to be able to make a fortune.

"I'm afraid this unlucky fortune will be a unlucky disaster."

Wu Liuqi sighed, but he did not express it. He was born in Chaozhou. He started by extermination of bandits and gradually climbed to the high position of general officers. The so-called bandit training is mostly a local civil organization that defends itself. He used the prestige of the Ming court and the Qing court to cleanse his identity into an official representative, but he still remembers that truth. Chen Wen has always regarded himself as a safeguard for the people and the people, and has a low tolerance for cruelty to the people and harming the people. Therefore, this money is really hot.

Knowing this, Wu Liuqi did not intend to disobey his life. The reason was that he would have to rebel if he disobeyed. From his own opinion, he was still resistant to surrendering to Chen Wen.

It was not that foreign generals were not valued in the Ming army in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. There were many rumors about the Ming army in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Wu Liuqi also knew that Zhang Zisheng and Ma Xin, who entered Fujian this time, were not brought up by Chen Wen. But now one is a duke and the other is a marquis, both of whom were in great positions, and they were all in great honor. But these two people were both those who surrendered to Chen Wen when he had only three or four places of the prefectures. One brought tens of thousands of men and women and a large number of scholars in Jiangxi. He had fought against the Qing army for many years in Jiangxi, and the other sold the territory of the two places to Chen Wen as a resource for promotion.

But now, the Ming army in Jiangsu and Zhejiang has become a giant. It is difficult for foreign generals to be like Zhang Zisheng and Ma Xin to be like him. In this case, he, a small general, would be far better than being a small soldier than to Chen Wen to be a small person, and perhaps he could still make a big fuck.

In an instant, Wu Liuqi had a lot of thoughts, but his subordinates were much simpler. They were all surprised by the generosity of Shang Kexi, the prince of Nanhai. They were from the group training and could maintain military discipline in their hometowns, but when they were in other places, they were completely different. They were originally stealing and robbing. Now Shang Kexi ordered them to rob, so there was no unhappy.

In the next few days, the troops of Huizhou and Chaozhou carried out a large-scale mobilization of eastern Guangzhou like locusts. Wherever they went, corpses were everywhere, and the villages and towns along the way lit a raging fire, and the thick smoke rushed to the sky. Countless men, women, old and young were driven west by these two armies. In the daytime, they whipped and scabbards sounded on any people who were slightly slow in their pace. At night, the school soldiers forced the big girl and young wife they liked into the camp to promote their despise. As long as they dared to have any slightest disobedience, it would be a knife.

The army is a well-class group, and top-down oppression is indispensable. If soldiers need to be released, they often choose to put their suppressed emotions on the weaker people.

Later brainwashing Chen Wen was doing it on Dalan Mountain. With the propaganda of the former army that protected the country and safeguarded the people, the temptation of the land and the coercion of severe punishment and laws, the strict military discipline of the Ming army in Jiangsu and Zhejiang made the soldiers under his command reject the bullying of the people from the bottom of their hearts. However, for other armies of this era, whether in China or Europe, robbery was the main source of income for soldiers, and now they are ordered to plunder, so they will become even more serious.

While Huang Yingjie and Wu Liuqi's two armies plowed out two hells of blood and fire in the wealthy eastern part of Guangzhou, Chen Wen's army also left Chaozhou and advanced toward Guangzhou.

Chen Wen knew nothing about Shang Kexi's response, but he knew very well that this cunning and wise King Zhishun, King Pingnan, and Prince of Nanhai were definitely not a good role to play with. The army headed west, but only talked about the distance between the two places. Chen Wen's army would have to travel for more than ten or twenty days at an average daily speed of 40 or 50 miles.

In fact, the speed of marching can be faster on weekdays, but the mortars carried really slowed down the speed of marching. But if you don’t carry them, it won’t work. The need to siege the city has to do so.

Fortunately, the army had not gone far, and someone had already chased after Chaozhou. Chen Wen had never seen the visitor before, but Sun Yunxuan, who was acting as a guide in Chen Wen's army, was very excited.

"The last general is the general of the Guangdong Navy General Ling Hai, Chen Qice, to pay homage to the king."

Chen Qice's name Chen Wen has heard that the Jiangmen victory was a good start in the Battle of Xinhui. Chen Qice's navy was one of the elite troops in Guangdong. Even Zheng Chenggong mentioned this name before leaving, let alone a guide.

"General Linghai's Jiangmen victory greatly increased the morale of our Emperor Ming Navy."

When meeting, you always have to say a few words about their proud actions. This is the minimum politeness. Chen Qice was quite excited about Chen Wen's praise. After all, Chen Wen was both famous kings and even the Prince of Tartars was no match for him. He was the most famous general today. Even Li Dingguo was a little inferior. Being able to receive Chen Wen's praise can be regarded as a great thing that glorifies his life and even passed on to future generations.

"The last general received the order from the king and immediately led the fleet to come. It turns out that the king gave our navy a chance to avenge his revenge!"

Chen Qice suffered losses in front of Xu Erxian, and there was nothing he could do about it, but now that Chen Wen has come, it is different. Not to mention anything else, even Jiergalang can't do well in the wild and waves, so the one named Shang has to stand aside.

"General Linghai went to the rescue thousands of miles away. I was very relieved. This time, I came to avenge the King of the Western Guangdong Army. I will never forgive that guy Shang Kexi."

As early as the siege of Quanzhou, Chen Wen had already dragged Zheng Chenggong to convey the news that he was about to enter Guangdong to the Ming army in western Guangdong. On the one hand, it was to allow the Ming army in western Guangdong to survive better, and on the other hand, it also forced Shang Kexi to return to Guangzhou. After all, he was too lazy to go all the way from Fujian to Guangxi.

Chen Qice led the fleet to arrive, but Chen Wen was a little worried about the safety of Shangxiachuan Island for him, but Chen Qice didn't care about it. In his words, the Ming army in western Guangdong had been looking forward to Chen Wen for a long time, and they all looked forward to Chen Wen to avenge them. Now his Shangxiachuan Island has Li Changrong's navy to defend, and Xu Long can't do anything.

The Ming army in western Guangdong was looking forward to it, and Chen Qice also brought greetings from Li Changrong, Deng Yao, Zhou Jintang and others. Most of the troops in Guangxi, which were farther away and inland, Wang Xing, were limited to the convenience of conveying messages without the convenience of water, but people's hearts were still clear at a glance.

"Brother Zhang, Brother Ma, look, we are here to fight the civil war, and we have so many people support it, which shows that Shang Kexi's popularity in Guangdong is so bad."

After seeing off Chen Qice, Chen Wen couldn't help but tease Zhang Zisheng and Ma Xin. Zhang Zisheng nodded and smiled, but Ma Xin followed closely: "King, this is not a civil war. Our Jiangsu and Zhejiang Kings Division has never used Shang Kexi as an official army."
