The news was too slow for Jinling to reach the capital for more than two thousand miles.

"Daning's energy has arrived!" Master Lin sighed.

The old man was born in a timely official and was once in the court of Daning. Even the current emperor, he also has the reality of being a teacher and student with Master Lin.

"It's not just right. If you finish the war earlier, you can die a fewer people." said the leader of the Ma Village.

Nowadays, the battle is about flesh and blood.

Especially when the Chuzhou army headed south, they conquered cities and land along the way, they were crushed by soldiers.

After a year of war, there were thousands of casualties among the child soldiers, and only a few of them were under the command of each commander.

Today, the total strength of the Chuzhou Army is hundreds of thousands, but the number of staff reductions this year is tens of thousands.

Among them, soldiers who were disabled due to injuries would receive bonuses and then resettle, so they would have food and clothing; those who died in the battle would directly provide for their parents, wife and children for three generations.

In this way, it is a considerable burden.

The leader of the Mazhai Village felt sorry for the soldiers and felt even more sorry for the money spent like flowing water.

Deng Jian said: "You can prepare for the battle!"

Monk Feng counted the rosary in his hand, but he didn't say anything, but he also had a little more fighting spirit.

Xue Biao's eyes were also shiny, but he was rare to have self-knowledge. He didn't speak, and seemed to be thinking about something.

Apart from Shuijin, Du Laoba was not here. He went to Hangzhou a few years ago and is now in charge of Hangzhou.

He was there, and was a brother of Huo Wu's surname, one of the five generals of the Chuzhou Army. He was just in charge of Hangzhou by the Taiwei Mansion.

Huo Wu sat in the first seat, his heart heavy.

The building of the Daning Dynasty is about to collapse, and white shirts from all over the world are divided.

Because the imperial court was blocking the front, the white-shirted soldiers from all over the country were restrained. Even if there was occasional friction, those who could reconcile were reconciled.

But without the court, it will be life or death in the blink of an eye.

Now the Chuzhou army not only prepares for the "Northern Expedition", but also decides the time for the "Northern Expedition".

The capital was in chaos, and the Bozhou army and Taizhou army occupied the territory, and they were all ahead of the Chuzhou army to "explode the north".

If the Chuzhou Army followed closely, it would be able to copy the Bozhou Army and the old nest of the Taizhou Army. These two white shirts were retreating, and the white shirts were fighting, which gave the court a chance to breathe. If the Chuzhou Army was late, when the capital was pacified, it would be possible that one would face two, or one would face the Bozhou Army or Taizhou Army that unified the north.

Although the north is not as densely populated and prosperous as Jiangnan, there are war horses in the north.

War horse!

The Chuzhou army has been fighting into soldiers, first in Huainan, and then in Jiangnan, without any war horses.

But everyone has read military books and knows the power of cavalry.

If the Bozhou Army or Taizhou Army are equipped with cavalry, even if the Chuzhou Army has a large number of soldiers, it will not have an advantage.

"I'm ready for war... News should come out in Bozhou!" Huo Wu thought for a while and said.

When Xue Biao heard this, he couldn't help but be anxious and said, "What news can be found in Bozhou? Now that we are afraid that we will say anything good, but they are the ones who turn back and refuse to recognize others... The fifth brother is kind and righteous, and treats people kindly, but he can't be too kind and righteous in this big matter..."

Huo Wu said: "What's the good idea for Lao Qi?"

Everyone looked at Xue Biao, and Xue Biao's eyes flashed: "Now Taizhou white shirt is destroyed... the rest are us, Qichun, Bozhou army and Taizhou army... I won't talk about Qichun anymore, fight us sooner or later... I can't watch Bozhou and Taizhou join forces. At that time, whether it is King Cheng, Cheng, or Master Cheng, the third master, it will be our great enemy. Now it is a good opportunity to join Bo to fight against Tai or join Tai to fight against Bo..."

Everyone was silent, but they all listened.

Nowadays, the Bozhou Army and the Taizhou Army are not as powerful as the Chuzhou Army.

If both sides had this meaning, there would not be the current situation.

It was only because the three parties had different directions of conquest before that they did not meet.

Xue Biao means that the Chuzhou army must go north first.

If the Bozhou Army and the Taizhou Army want to "explode the North", they must first decide whether the Chuzhou Army is fighting or harmonious.

If the two sides choose to fight, they may not be able to win.

If the two sides choose to reconcile, even if they are nominally "alliance", they will be divided into masters and slaves at that time.

Xue Biao's idea was suspected of "taking advantage of the situation", but the Chuzhou army took the initiative.

Huo Bao listened for a while and said, "Where do you need to unite? Are the Bozhou Army and us one? The Qilin Emperor in Bozhou is not only the emperor of Bozhou, but also the emperor of our Chuzhou Army..."

Although the little emperor is just a puppet, sometimes his status is also very important.

Master Lin nodded and said, "That's right, the separation of the two armies is just a temporary solution, and it is originally of the same origin..."

"Haha, it's right, it's just that, it's originally a 'family'. The location of the Bozhou army is similar to our own territory..." The leader of the village also understood.

Huo Wu's eyes lit up and looked at Deng Jian and Monk Feng.

Deng Jian was full of fighting spirit: "The battle of Mian Ning must not be missed!"

Monk Feng also said: "I heard that there is an ancient temple in the capital, and I yearn for it!"

Xue Biao looked at Huo Bao and was surprised: "Xiaobao is so confident? Are you not afraid that your uncle will turn against you?"

According to Xue Biao's intention, he directly rushed to the north, and used force to intimidate the Bozhou and Taizhou alliance.

However, when I arrived at Huo Bao, I had no choice but to give Bozhou army and Taizhou.

Is this the decisive Pusanhui who endured the Chuzhou Army's advance?

Huo Baodao: "Not afraid, the Chuzhou army has now divided the world, and the Jinling giant city is the foundation and the Yangtze River is the natural danger..."

The remaining seven points are the world, two points in Qichun Army, one point in Bozhou, one point in Taizhou, and three points in the imperial court.

Daning lost most of it, and was powerless.

Not to mention, the court's internal strife accelerated the speed of falling apart.

Once the prince dies, no matter whether it is related to the Jin family or not, the emperor and the empress will turn against each other.

At that time, the people and horses held by the Jin family will not only not belong to the court, but also be on guard.

Now that the Northern Expedition is about to "destroy Ning", the Chuzhou Army takes the initiative and takes the initiative, which is better than being behind and waiting for the three to unify the north and then fight to the decisive battle.

As for the choice of Tu San...

He is a hero, and even if he is unwilling to be inferior to others, he will think about it.

The Chuzhou army had hundreds of thousands of soldiers, including the Jinling Giant City as its foundation, the Yangtze River as its natural danger, and tens of thousands of navy troops.

Even if the Bozhou army put all its strength into a decisive battle with the Chuzhou army in Huaibei and achieved victory, the Chuzhou army still has its foundation and makes a comeback at any time.

Apart from allowing the Chuzhou army to follow the "Northern Expedition", Tu San had no other choice.

*

Outside Xuzhou Prefecture.

The wedding banquet was also eaten and the New Year was over. Shuijin, who represented Chuzhou to Xuzhou for the wedding banquet, took his men back.

Tu San took his subordinates and sent them to the outside of the city gate in person.

Xuzhou is closer to the capital than Jinling, and the news is a few days earlier.

But the news disappeared.

Except for Tu San and Chen Juren, Jiang Ping and others, no one else knew about it.

The marriage between Zhang and the Bozhou Army and the Taizhou Army were barely considered "a family".

Even Zhang Cheng, the leader of the white shirt in Taizhou, came to Xuzhou to see the marriage in person.

In this way, the two sides have a tacit understanding. In the new year, the Taizhou army will go to Shandong and the Bozhou army will go to Shanxi.

In recent years, the Jianghuai River and Huai River have been drought year by year, and some places in Shandong have droughts, but Shanxi has rarely had good weather.

Shanxi has good weather and a large population. In addition, the population has fled to famine in recent years, the population is now in a prosperous place.

If the Bozhou army is over, the population and military rations can be replenished.

But before the Bozhou army moved, news came from the capital.

No matter how rich Shanxi is, it is not as good as the capital.

But Tu San knew that the Chuzhou army could watch him occupy Xuzhou, but would not watch him occupy the capital.

A centipede insect will die without being stiff.

Even if the Bozhou army joined forces with the Taizhou army to "explode the North", it would still come out in full swing.

At that time, will the Chuzhou Army watch?

Tu San thought about it for several days, and his teeth were swollen, but he also understood that he could not bet or afford to bet.

It is no different to dream of wanting to put aside the Chuzhou army's "Northern Expedition".

If the Taizhou army was still there, the Hangzhou Prefecture was still in the hands of the court, and more than 100,000 troops were conquering the Chuzhou army, the Chuzhou army would still be scruples when doing things; but now the Taizhou white shirt is already yellow yesterday, and the Hangzhou Prefecture is also in the hands of the Chuzhou army, Jiangnan has no worries.

The Chuzhou Army was able to free up his hands to go north.

Since we can't let go, the rest is just talk.
To be continued...
