Although Hauge put all his hopes on Duoduo, Duoduo didn't know how to answer Hauge's question.

After all, even if the people in Haoge are covered with coatings, there are less than 800 people. Normally, three Niulu can be compiled. If the armored soldiers of each Niulu desperately shrink, then there are almost five Niulu, which is one Jiala.

But now even the two armored soldiers of the Jiala are far from enough for Haoge. After all, Haoge brought 22,000 combat soldiers to the south at the beginning. If the calculating of coats and auxiliary soldiers were counted, there would be 28,000 people.

If there are only Wuniulujia soldiers left now, let alone those old enemies of Haoge, those old friends of Haoge will also help him to separate these five Niulu with all the inheritance.

Haoge stayed outside the pass and had five Niulu's family in Beijing, and he also had countless farms, women, gold, silver and jewelry.

When Haoge saw Duoduo not speaking, he could only find a way to drag Duoduo into the water: "Uncle Fifteen, this defeat in the Southeast is the one who shared the responsibility for you and me. If I can't save it, Uncle Fifteen may have a big problem!"

Haoge's words were a bit rough, but they were indeed the truth. If Duoduo could not protect Haoge, Prince Su, he would probably be unable to protect himself.

After understanding this, Duoduo immediately made up his mind: "So I said I would stay in Jiangbei for one more day. The Jinhua thief was not so fast, even if he could only accommodate dozens of people, it would be good. Moreover, King Su also has fifteen Niulu and Yingtou under him. If I cannot support him, I will find a way, but when I am not strong enough, King Su must also help!"

Haoge has already understood that they will stay in Jiangbei for one more day and will naturally accommodate some defeated soldiers. In addition, there are many Qing troops in Jiangbei, who can be accommodated together or even directly raised the flag. However, no matter how Duoduo and Haoge try their best to contain and enroll, they only have so many soldiers and horses in their hands, so they can only find ways to move each other.

Duoduo has at most more than a thousand people. How could it be that fifteen Niulu and the camp? Naturally, it is time to borrow troops from Duoduo at that time. Duoduo also used the same trick to borrow troops from Haoge temporarily. Anyway, as long as you deal with the current situation, it will be the greatest victory. After all, Duoduo and Haoge have many backgrounds outside the pass and Beijing.

But Haoge felt that Duoduo's method was not the root cause. He gritted his teeth and said, "Uncle Fifteen, we are a family now, and we have to live a way out! Now the responsibility for the Southern Expedition is all on us, but the King of England has escaped unscrupulously. When the time comes to be held accountable, the King of England will definitely be talking about our gossip. He doesn't know how to restrain himself, so although we can withdraw our troops, our pace must be consistent and we cannot retreat too quickly than the King of England!"

After Hauge said this, Duoduo understood that although King Ajige of the British Eastern Expedition lost a lot of troops, he finally retreated and was forced to return to help because of the loss of Jingzhou. I don’t know how much stronger than Duoduo and Haoge were than Duoduo.

He now regards Haoge as his brother-in-law: "King Su said so much, and no one below is allowed to circulate the specific circumstances of the Nanjing battle without authorization. Those who violate the order will be killed!"

On the surface, Duoduo did this because he stabilized the morale of the army, but in fact he was forbidden from the Qing army in Jiangbei to inform King Ajige of the specific story of the defeat in Nanjing.

After this crushing defeat, the Qing army could no longer gain a foothold in Jianghuai, so they could only retreat to Xuzhou and Shandong. If King Ajige could receive timely notification from the Qing army in Jiangbei in time, they would naturally make strategic adjustments as soon as possible. However, Duoduo and Haoge had made up their minds to inform the princes and Bell in the capital, but forgot to notify King Ajige because of "humidity in military affairs".

However, this is also an old method used by the Qing army in Jiangnan. Last time, Duoduo was unwilling to let King Ajige intervene in the war in Jiangnan, so he only informed Huguang about the general situation, but did not ask King Ajige to send troops to the east. In the end, Dorgon from Beijing informed King Ajige of the British to launch a large-scale expedition. Now Duoduo and Haoge both hoped that King Ajige would be as embarrassed as possible in the future, otherwise they would be dead.

For the Ming army in Yue, the number one enemy in front of him was also the upper-class King Ajige. Although there were at least 10,000 or 20,000 Qing troops in Jiangbei, the main force of Duoduo and Haoge's Eight Banners Army had been hit by a devastating blow. The main force of the Qing army in Jiangbei was either the Green Camp or the New Affiliated Army in Jiangnan. It was no problem to recover the Jianghuai army. The troops of Ajige were the real enemy of the Ming army.

Therefore, Liu Yongxi handed over the responsibility of clearing Jianghuai to Zhou Zhisheng and Wang Puxiang: "Beigu Bo, do you know why I asked the Empress to appoint you as Beigu Bo?"

Zhou Zhisheng thought about the title of "Beigu Bo" for a long time, and even asked many people for advice, so he gave the answer directly: "Is it because His Majesty the King of Yue once opened the Jingkou?"

Beigubo was naturally named after Beigushan, one of the three famous mountains in Jingkou. Liu Yongxi also said clearly: "That's right, the original origin of this Ming Dynasty army in Yue was that I once opened the town of Jingkou. The country would establish the southeast of the country. Jingkou was naturally an important town to protect the capital. During the Six Dynasties, the royal family or important officials were all out of the town!"

Zhou Zhisheng knew that Liu Yongxi was entrusting himself with the important task of guarding the capital: "Your Majesty loves you, I will repay you with death!"

Liu Yongxi laughed: "Baigubo, you and I are my family, so don't be polite. If you are in Jingkou, I can feel at ease if I am in the capital! But guarding the capital, it is not enough to have Jingkou alone!"

Wang Puxiang knew that Liu Yongxi had a heavy responsibility to him: "Please arrange it by His Majesty King Yue!"

Regarding the specific process of this Nandu battle, Liu Yongxi had heard Wang Puxiang and Zhou Zhisheng talk more than once, so he told Wang Puxiang: "The court and the empress wanted to promote you, but they originally wanted to find time and reason to promote you first. But since you have seized the opportunity, the court will naturally not treat you badly. I will give you two days to organize a powerful team, Beigubo, how many camps can you get out now?!"

Zhou Zhisheng knew that since Wang Puxiang had made such a brilliant achievement, he must stand alone. However, Wang Puxiang had only one battalion and two hundred cavalry before. Although he was an elite army, it was naturally far from enough to stand alone. Naturally, he had to draw backbones from his two infantry brigades as new military bases.

Of course, this incident was not a bad thing for Zhou Zhisheng. Not only would the court help Zhou Zhisheng fill the gap, but Wang Puxiang's troops were from Zhou Zhisheng's troops and were fighting in Jiangbei, they would naturally obey Zhou Zhisheng's command and dispatch. Therefore, he seemed particularly generous: "How about the third infantry battalion and the first cavalry battalion?"

For Zhou Zhisheng, this was already the ultimate force he could draw, especially the transfer of the two battalions of cavalry took away more than half of the cavalry of Zhou Zhisheng's troops. Liu Yongxi was also very satisfied with this: "General Wang, there are both the fifth infantry battalion and the two battalions of cavalry, and Beigubo fought side by side, do you dare to cross the Yangtze River and Huai River?"

Wang Puxiang immediately said, "Your Highness King Yue, please rest assured that if you can fight side by side with Beigubo, five hundred people will be enough to cross the Yangtze River and Huai River!"

He knew that King Yue Liu Yongxi was a very nostalgic person, so he immediately mentioned an old story: "I was still a small soldier under Liu Liangzuo last year. When King Yue's strange troops broke into Linhuai, I was inspired by His Highness and resolutely rebelled. His Highness's advice reminded me of the scene at that time. At that time, our army was only 3,000 people and even could cross the Yangtze River and Huai River. Today, I and Beigubo have full support and can definitely cross the Yangtze River and Huai River!"

For Wang Puxiang, he was not the "old minister of Liu Yongxi and Empress Zhang" who fled south, but the prisoner captured in the Battle of Linhuai.

Moreover, the real situation was not like what he said, "He was inspired by His Highness and resolutely rebelled." He was Liu Liangzuo's servant at that time and wanted to escape back, but in the end he couldn't get off after getting on the pirate ship, which led to Wang Puxiang, who made great achievements today.

Liu Yongxi had already reviewed Wang Puxiang's resume and was extremely satisfied with his answer: "The defense of Jianghuai will be left to the two generals. After the Qing army of Jianghuai is cleared, the court will prepare to use troops upstream to capture the Yangtze River!"

Of course, Zhou Zhisheng's troops were only two brigades, and even if Wang Puxiang's newly organized brigades were only three brigades.

With the lessons of past dynasties, Liu Yongxi could not only deploy three brigades in Jiangbei, so he was determined to let Zhang Huangyan take charge of Yangzhou at that time, and Xuzhou also needed a general to guard it.

But no matter what, the focus of the Ming Dynasty's offensive will be on Jiangxi and Huguang. So after sending away Wang Puxiang and Zhou Zhisheng, the focus of the imperial meeting became how to take Jingxiang all. Zhang Guowei pointed to the map excitedly and said, "The situation in Jiangxi, Huguang and Sichuan is much more complicated than that in Jiangnan. We not only have to deal with King Ajige, but also with the troops of the thieves Zhang Xianzhong and the Tang king!"

In fact, there are many forces in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River that are hesitating between several major forces. However, everyone knows that as long as the Ming Dynasty of Yue consolidates the results of Jiangbei, the Western Expedition will naturally be inevitable. However, Zhu Dadian said very seriously: "Fortunately, the Empress and His Highness of Yue took Jingzhou first, otherwise our army would have no place to stand in the upper reaches. Now Jingzhou is in the hands of our army, and it is not a problem to advance or retreat!"

Although the remnants of the Dashun Army, led by the wife of Zhenyi, only controls Jingzhou Prefecture, under the situation of recovering the Nandu, the remnants of the Dashun Army have become a crucial role. With this rebel army, they dare not move eastward in Ajige, and He Tengjiao's troops and other Ming troops south of Dongting Lake will also throw themselves into trouble.

Although Empress Zhang is not in military affairs, she also discovered the benefits of acquiring the remnants of the Dashun Army: "The Gao family restrained the Jianlu in the upper reaches, and before the war in this Western Expedition, our army had a chance of winning!"

This is a very optimistic estimate, but Liu Yongxi felt that this evaluation was just right: "What the Empress said is very good. As long as the Eight Kings Zhang Xianzhong does not leave Sichuan, the situation will be very good for our army!"
