Chapter 43: Combining the two benefits

When someone asked this question, Gao Jiejun immediately became silent, and everyone was waiting for Liu Yongxi's answer.

Even Mrs. Xing, who looked angry, held the whip and waited for Liu Yongxi to give an answer. If Liu Yongxi did not give an answer that satisfies her, her whip would definitely suck it.

Although she has a high prestige in the army and is even respected as "Mrs. Xing" by soldiers, Gao Jie's army is full of giant bands who are born in a murderous and arson belt. Even the mountain-crossing horse Gao Jie could not control these desperate people, let alone she was just a wife.

That's why she was obviously taken advantage of by the young master on the other side, but the soldiers behind her cheered and watched the fun together happily.

Now some people even jumped out to ask Chengyi Bo Mansion for the next plan, but she also wanted to get a clear answer from Liu Yongxi.

Since Sun Chuanting died in Tongguan in battle, Li Zicheng, who had hundreds of thousands of troops, formed a force that swept the remaining clouds, and was almost invincible. Gao Jie's army, as the only remaining field heavy army groups in the Ming Dynasty, was naturally the first to bear the brunt.

Under Li Zicheng's edge, Gao Jie adopted the tactic of escape without hesitation. He first fled from Tongguan to Yan'an. When he heard that Li Zicheng came to attack, he entered Shanxi east, then ran from Jiangzhou to Puzhou and then to Zezhou, and then fled from Huaiqing, Henan to Shandong and headed south along the canal.

In just a few months, Gao Jie's troops had already run around half of China, and Li Zicheng could not catch up with him.

Although the facts proved that Gao Jie's strategy was very wise, Tang Tong honestly led his troops to Beijing to serve the king. As a result, the eight thousand soldiers only received 4,000 silver rewards, and each person received an average of 5 cents of silver. Tang Tong, as the head coach of the entire army, rewarded 50 taels particularly.

Gao Jie's strength was still unscathed, but he was still "Gao Jie and others also entered the first level of the office". He was promoted from deputy general to general, and he still deserved a lot of other rewards.

However, the entire Gao Jie army felt that the future was dark and the Ming Dynasty was about to end. Although Li Zicheng had not entered Shandong yet, the officials and civilians in Shandong lost confidence in the court. Looking forward to the Dashun Army going south, they actually encountered walls everywhere after posing the banner of the official army. Only by posing the banner of Li Zicheng of the rebel army could they successfully obtain food and salary from the prefectures and counties.

Therefore, Gao Jie's army had 30,000 people, but he could only pretend to be Li Zicheng's troops like Chengyi Bo Mansion. Now he naturally hopes to get some clear good news from Liu Yongxi.

Liu Yongxi certainly knew how to draw a cake for these desperate desperate people: "My father is Liu Kongzhao, the uncle of Xinjiangkou, Nandu, and the 7th Battalion of the 10th Battalion and the 7th Battalion of the Southern Capital, tens of thousands of naval forces were dedicated to Caojiang. The 10th Battalion of the Yangtze River, from Jiujiang to Zhenjiang, the defense line of thousands of miles of Jinshan River is the defense area of ​​my father. Where should I go next?"

Liu Yongxi said this and Qi Qi sighed relieved. After all, they were about to continue south along the canal next. What they were most worried about was that no one was to respond to the south, and Cao Jiang Chengyibo happened to be in control of the Nandu Navy and was the key figure in their escape south. Therefore, the horse whip on Mrs. Xing's hand could not be swung out now.

But Liu Yongxi skipped Mrs. Xing and asked, "May I ask this general's name is Gao?"

The officer who was asking the other side immediately reported to his home: "In Xing Shengping, I have always been in charge of the old camp. Is my sister and I really going to go back to Nanjing now?"

Liu Yongxi immediately laughed: "I was born and raised in Nanjing and my family is also in Nanjing. Since the capital can no longer be defended, why don't I go back to Nanjing? Brother Shengping, when I arrive in Nanjing, I will come to work. Just say whatever I want to play and eat, and I will make sure you will be happy in the gentle countryside!"

Xing Shengping was really happy. For a fighting man like him, a prosperous place like Nanjing, a gentle and rich village, is like a paradise. However, if he, a military man, would probably not be able to find the north when he entered Nanjing City, and most of them would go in with a smile and cry.

Now if you have Xiaozhenyi Boss as an owner, you can not only have fun but also spend money: "Okay, that's it! My uncle, since we are all official troops, it's better to join forces to go south together. Our two soldiers can take care of each other!"

Mrs. Xing didn't expect that Xing Shengping would actually give Liu Yongxi an invitation first and hold the whip tightly. But Gao Jie and his subordinates all thought Xing Shengping was very reasonable: "That's right, uncle, our land is a little stronger, and you have a fleet on the canal, so we do cooperate!"

"Our two teams will benefit from each other, and if we are divided, we will suffer from two injuries. We can take care of each other!"

"Yes, the reason why our old camp walked slowly is that it has a little too much baggage!"

Liu Yongxi soon learned that the opposite was the old battalion of Gao Jie's army. According to the military practice, the old, weak, wounded, family members, and supplies would follow the old battalion. As a result, Gao Jie's troops were anxious to flee south. The old battalion, which was inconvenient to move, accidentally landed at the end of the entire army. Now they stopped and waited for Gao Jie to send troops to pick him up.

But now when they saw the fleet of Chengyi Bo Mansion, they naturally had a bright eye. They felt that the two sides had room for cooperation. Liu Yongxi also laughed: "I originally wanted to reject you, but I dare not reject a beautiful lady like Mrs. Xing! Mrs. Xing, what do you think?"

Mrs. Xing didn't expect to be slighted by Liu Yongxi again, but now she has something to ask for Liu Yongxi, and she found that she was not particularly disgusted with Liu Yongxi's teasing: "My uncle is very good. When we arrive in Nandu, we will have to have more contact with each other!"

She had discussed with Gao Jie countless times before, and rushing along the canal south is just the first step. She must be prepared to cross the Yangtze River next, and Liu Kongzhao's more than 10,000 naval troops can become the key to whether Gao Jie's army can cross the river.

But she quickly asked the most concerned question: "My uncle just said that the capital could not be defended?"

Not only did she care about this issue, but also officers such as Xing Shengping were also concerned about this issue. Liu Yongxi immediately said: "Marquis Taikang and Lord Tong escaped from the capital. The thief Li Zicheng has already attacked the capital of the capital. The Beijing camp has collapsed without fighting in Shahe. In this situation, I think our two families should further strengthen cooperation!"

Tong Yili heard Liu Yongxi's name and quickly stood up: "I'm the head of the Ministry of Revenue Tong Yili, Mrs. Xing, General Xing, since the capital cannot be defended, then our two families must cooperate sincerely to protect their family's life. General Xing said it very well just now. Our two families will benefit from each other, and if they join forces, they will be a hero who will make up for the sake of the king and marquis!"

The old camp had known that the capital was already in danger and could be lost at any time, but he didn't expect that Li Zicheng would enter the capital so soon. Now he felt that life would be almost impossible. However, Liu Yongxi was still adding fuel to the fire: "You must not make mistakes in this matter. Not only will you die without a place to bury, but you will also be accused of eternal eternal reputation!"
